As if remembering the fear of being dominated by the spicy braised skewers in Chengdu, Li Xiao took a few breaths.
"I think I can hold on for a while longer."
Li Xiao, who was standing three meters away from the boss, swallowed and walked forward.
The hot aroma kept coming as Li Xiao got closer, and Li Xiao couldn't help but cover his mouth and sneeze.
"Boss, what do you bake here?"
"I have mutton, pork ribs, and scones here. What do you want to eat, young man?" The boss raised his head in response and quickly focused on the barbecue in front of him.
The large handfuls of skewers in his hands were "sizzling" and steaming from the fire.
"How to sell it? Boss, how many skewers do you have in this handful?" Li Xiao looked at the juicy meat skewers being grilled in the open fire until the aroma was overflowing, and his mouth began to secrete saliva. It smelled so good, I wanted to eat it.
"There are a hundred strings in a handful, two dollars a string."
The boss's answer made Li Xiao almost couldn't help but doubt his ears.
"This price is much better than the mutton kebabs I had at a beef noodle restaurant before." It's also a lot thicker.
"Of course the noodle shop is a place that specializes in eating noodles. I specialize in making skewers. The lamb skewers I cook will not disappoint you." The boss kept turning the skewers in his hands and after a while he turned them over.
Sprinkle the seasonings on the side.
Li Xiao leaned forward slightly and found that there were several spices mixed together. At most, you could smell some cumin and salt and pepper, but the other ingredients were mixed together and you couldn't tell them apart.
"Boss, did you add cumin?"
"This seasoning is specially made by our family and is not spread to anyone else."
The boss saw that the barbecue was almost cooked, and put them all on the chili noodles next to him. He picked up a large handful of chili noodles and sprinkled them carefully. Soon, the salty barbecue was combined with the thick chili noodles.
wrapped together.
"Let's start with twenty skewers of mutton skewers and twenty skewers of meat tendons."
Li Xiao ordered his order and found a seat with fewer people and sat down.
This time he learned a lesson and put two bottles of iced milk in his backpack early.
Specially used to relieve spicy food.
Seeing the boss's posture of spreading chili noodles, Li Xiao felt a little ashamed.
“It’s truly the legendary barbecue restaurant that offers chili noodles for free.”
Studio:
"Seeing the iced milk on the table, the anchor felt a little happy for some reason."
"We still can't forget the way the host was so angry that he cried loudly on the streets of Chengdu."
"Don't be like this, you are talking nonsense!"
"Come on, come on, get ready to watch the host cry as he is being tortured."
"Selling melon seeds and cola on the second floor..."
"How good are you guys upstairs? The host is trying his best to poison you, and you are actually teasing him like this."
"The price of barbecue in this store is really good. A skewer of barbecue is as long as a palm, and the portion is much larger than what the anchor ate at the noodle shop yesterday."
“The price is also very affordable!”
"I suspect the anchor was frightened when he saw the boss putting on the chili noodles."
Li Xiao sat at his seat and waited for about ten minutes before the boss prepared the kebabs he wanted.
The dark brown barbecued meat was mixed with the bright red chili noodles, and the spicy aroma made Li Xiao feel a little heady.
“It still smells very good.”
It is a habit for Li Xiao to drink milk first as a "precaution".
Picking up a bunch of mutton, Li Xiao was a little surprised by the size.
"This skewer weighs about two taels. You can imagine that before grilling, the weight of this lamb skewer is very considerable."
"This store uses Lanzhou's ancient baking method. There is no oil, and it is directly dry-baked over an open flame."
“The most important test of this method is the freshness of the ingredients.”
"If the ingredients are not fresh enough, the baked goods will become dry and lose the original taste of the ingredients."
"The fat and lean mutton is still slightly oily."
Li Xiao swallowed the saliva induced by the barbecue and took a bite.
“The lamb tastes very delicious.”
"Because it is dry-roasted, there is no extra flavor, so the juice and oil inside are completely stimulated to bring out the fragrance."
“It doesn’t taste bad at all, and the meat is firm and tender.”
"The strong flavor of salt, pepper and cumin mixed with the spicy and fragrant chili noodles makes people feel more and more delicious the more they eat it. It is simply an endless aftertaste."
"Try the pork ribs on the side again."
"It feels very crispy in the mouth, but when chewing, you can find that the tendons are difficult to break."
"Compared to mutton skewers, the meat tendons taste spicier. It should be because these tangled tissues are easier to wrap the chili noodles."
The tendons don't look as boxy as mutton, but rather thick and long.
“Very chewy, crunchy, and full of spicy flavor.”
“It tastes like a gritty texture, but it takes a long time to chew it.”
“It tastes much chewier than the mutton skewers just now.”
"It's amazing that it doesn't get stuck between your teeth."
After eating, Li Xiao felt heat starting to rise in his mouth.
"It's starting to feel spicy."
Taking a few big breaths of cool air, Li Xiao felt that he could still accept this level of spiciness.
“Although it is a barbecue famous for its spiciness, the chili noodles are actually mainly aromatic.”
"You can taste it, it's three different kinds of chili peppers ground and mixed together."
"Due to the boss's sense of confidentiality, I will not introduce it in detail here."
“Compared with the spicy-flavored Chuan Chuan that I’ve eaten on the streets of Chengdu, the Chuan Chuan here not only retains the original taste of the ingredients, but also uses just the right seasonings to add color to them.”
Li Xiao took a sip of milk and gave a thumbs up.
“Both mutton skewers and meat tendon skewers both get a high score of 90 points here!”
"Speaking of which, before I came in, I saw several cars parked on the roadside. They must also be customers who come here to eat skewers. As far as these skewers are concerned, it is indeed a worthwhile trip to check out the delicious food.
"
Studio:
"When I saw the boss grilling meat just now, I felt the aroma almost reaching me through the screen. The damn thing is that I couldn't eat it at all!"
“It’s so affordable to eat skewers at a barbecue restaurant like Lanzhou! Located in Guangdong, you can’t buy such a big skewer of mutton for less than seven or eight yuan.”
"Take me upstairs, it's located in Guangxi. The mutton skewers here cost at least five or six yuan!"
"Seeing the anchor eating so deliciously, my tears flowed out of my mouth unsatisfactoryly and wet the table in shame."
"Let's go to this restaurant to eat skewers as a team, are you guys with us?"
"Take me, take me, take me! I go to school in Lanzhou, and we can come out and play skewers together on weekends!"
"Surprise! It seems that a schoolmate has been found."
